One designer, every pattern, every video

Tony See Patterns is run by one person, Tony, in Romania. The business was called Dieselpunk.Ro before the rename, and the company behind it is still Dieselpunk.ro SRL. Tony designs every pattern, builds every item on camera for the tutorial, and answers the support messages himself. That is why the pattern and the video always match: the person who drew the pieces is the one stitching them on screen.

What is in every pattern

A Tony See PDF pattern contains real size pattern pieces for every part of the item, stitching holes pre-marked and pre-matched so the seams line up hole for hole, a materials list with leather weights and hardware, printing instructions with a test page to check your printer, the licence, and a link to the full step by step video tutorial for that exact design. The SVG and DXF patterns contain every part drawn at true scale, ready to cut, with the same video tutorial and laser cutting notes.

Patterns are instant downloads. You buy, you download, you print or cut the same day. Three or more patterns in one order get an automatic 15 percent discount at checkout on leather-patterns.com.

Beginner friendly by design

The catalogue runs from a two piece wallet to a full backpack, and the product pages say which is which. Beginners start with the free pouch and pin cushion patterns on the free stuff page, then a wallet, then the 7 panel flat cap, which comes in ten sizes and is built for a first hat. The pre-marked stitching holes are what make the difference for a first timer: you punch what is printed and nothing has to be measured or spaced by eye. A ranked list is in best leather patterns for beginners.

What you can make

Backpacks, bags and purses, wallets, hats and caps, shoes and moccasins, tool bags, and cosplay pieces including masks, helmets and armour. The hat range alone is 25 patterns, listed in top 25 leather hat patterns. Bags range from a simple hip bag to animal shaped designs like the fox satchel and the bat wing crossbody. Shoe patterns such as the moccasin boots come in 15 EU sizes with right and left feet in one download.

A licence that lets you sell

Every PDF pattern is licensed for personal crafting use including the sale of up to 10 finished items per pattern per year, on your own website, in a shop, at conventions or fairs. The pattern files themselves may not be resold, shared or redistributed. Laser files are protected the same way and are not intended for mass production without consent. The full details are in the leather pattern FAQ.

Stuck on a step, send a message. Someone is always around to give you a hand, and it is usually Tony. Questions about printing, sizing and leather choice are the common ones, and the answers are in the FAQ and the printing guide so you can often sort it out in two minutes.
